Ortoli | Rosenstadt: What Exactly Is a Seller Responsible for When Selling Its Staffing Firm?
Buyers of a business generally expect sellers to be responsible for certain liabilities relating to when the seller owned its business—a concept mergers and acquisitions professionals refer to as indemnification. Indemnification is one of the most heavily negotiated, and potentially most significant, provisions of a purchase agreement, and understanding the terminology common to such agreements is essential when negotiating a deal. Attorney Paul Pincus of Ortoli Rosenstadt LLP explains what sellers are liable for, how a seller’s liability may be limited, and how buyers may seek to fund potential indemnity claims.

Chicago City Council Set to Delay Implementation of New Paid Leave Law
Almost a month after a new paid leave ordinance was approved by the Chicago City Council, a series of amendments was approved by the city council’s workforce development committee. Among the proposed changes is a six-month delay in implementation.
The ordinance, which requires all employers to provide at least 10 days of paid leave to all workers, was vigorously opposed by the business community and currently is scheduled to go into effect Dec. 31. The package of amendments, including the implementation delay, is an effort to give businesses—especially small businesses—more time to understand the new ordinance so they can comply.
The full City Council is likely to vote on the proposed changes next week. If enacted, the amended ordinance would become effective July 1, 2024.
